FULL LIVERPOOL SQUAD AVAILABLE TO FACE WOLVES AS FIVE PLAYERS RULED OUT AMID DARWIN NUNEZ DECISION

Liverpool take on Wolves tonight at Molineux in their FA Cup third round replay.

 

Liverpool will be without several key players when they face Wolves tonight.

 

The Reds head to Molineux for their FA Cup third round replay. The original tie finished in a 2-2 draw at Anfield earlier this month, meaning another match is needed to determine the winner.

 

Should Liverpool get past Wolves, they will face Brighton in the fourth round. The Reds recently lost to the Seagulls 3-0 in the Premier League.

 

Jurgen Klopp will have to cope without several of his key players once again. The likes of Virgil van Dijk, Arthur Melo, Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz and Roberto Firmino are all sidelined.

 

Darwin Nunez remains a question mark for selection, having missed the defeat at Brighton due to injury. And Klopp hinted in his press conference on Friday that the striker could be fit enough to return, but did not say either way on which decision would be made on the player’s fitness.

 

Progress with all availability,” said Klopp. “Darwin is very close but it’s Monday and tomorrow’s the game. He’s very close.

 

“Milly (James Milner) and Stefan (Bajcetic) trained fully. Milly was on the bench and Stefan is now available again.”

 

Here is a look at the expected full Liverpool squad to face Wolves, barring any late injuries.

 

Goalkeepers: Adrian, Alisson, Caoimhin Kelleher.

 

Defenders: Andy Robertson, Ibrahima Konate, Joe Gomez, Joel Matip, Kostas Tsimikas, Nat Phillips, Calvin Ramsay, Trent Alexander-Arnold.

 

Midfielders: Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Curtis Jones, Fabio Carvalho, Fabinho, Harvey Elliott, Jordan Henderson, Thiago Alcantara, Naby Keita, Stefan Bajcetic, James Milner.

 

Forwards: Mohamed Salah, Bobby Clark, Ben Doak, Cody Gakpo.

 

Sidelined: Arthur Melo (muscle issue), Luis Diaz (knee), Diogo Jota (calf injury), Roberto Firmino (calf injury), Virgil van Dijk (hamstring), Darwin Nunez (hamstring – doubt).
